Reviews for "Five Train"

Mein kopf!

Ok, so this is the best example I can pick of a recurring problem I've found in your tracks, so I'll pick it out now.

For the most part, your talent for what you do is acceptional, to a point where I can say," Damn, this is the kind of stuff that should probably be making money." And it usually is, there are several artists who with some determination COULD be doing just that with their tracks...

..but there are also times where it feels so chaotic and intense that it tries too hard. This one does in particular, tries so hard that there's literally nothing to dance here. It certainly is 'interesting' but it wasn't even halfway through the song before I felt more like I was sitting through it, than in it.

No one can really complain about the origionality or diversity because nobody does stuff like this that gets further than half a minute into someone's head. It also takes an immense amount of effort to leave me confused as I was. Over all though, everything shifts too fast for you to pick up on a common beat, though there are small sections where things stabalize.

So I guess I don't know quite what to make of this piece.

P.S.: While the problem is recurring, it's still relatively sparse in your work. Nothing to worry about, but it's atleast something to step back and question about your pieces. Don't go crazy trying to feel crazy.

Your wisdom again is most beneficial! Thanks for the guidance, its quite humbling that you would go to such extensive detail in the review. It would take me 15 minutes to just type it, if I knew what the hell to say!
You're dead right, its a busy production, perhaps un-danceable. I really need to strip my tracks back to the core.
Once again, I thank you Zedar. This is the kind of advice I need and maybe it will sink into my thick skull eventually!
